Worship

St Anne’s is an Anglican school in the Diocese of Natal. The spiritual life of the St Anne’s community is cared for by the College Chaplain, Reverend Doctor Susan van Niekerk. On Sunday there is either Holy Eucharist or Evening Prayer. A very active Students Christian Association is run by the girls under the supervision of the staff. Girls of all denominations are welcome at St Anne’s

The Chaplain

The first full-time Chaplain at St Anne’s was appointed in 1998. Historically, a priest from the nearby Parish would cover all religious activities.

HYMN OF LIGHT

According to the family of Betty Sutton, she wrote the words of the ‘Hymn of Light’ as well as the words for the hymn ‘Look down, O Father, on our native land.’ She was apparently quite secretive about her writing but told one of her nieces that she had written the ‘Hymn of Light’.
